hello, I haven't done indoor routes for years but want a rough idea what's involved in da currency I can understand

What would a 20 metre  indoor 7c with no obvious crux work out in equivalent back-to-back boulder problems?

forgive me if this seems dense

Ideally your punishment would be to have dense answer it for you  :thumbsup:

Well Raindogs is F8a and there isn't a move harder than English 6b.

Hows that for a starting point?

Very reassuring, except that isn't 'dogs something with a technical crux rather than sustained climbing at the same grade?

Nope, Raindogs has lots of moves at the same grade, english 6a/fnt 6bish, with an english 6b/fnt6c? crux throw.
